Configure the URLs on a Linked Mode vCenter Server System

<

|

If you connect a vCenter Server system to a Linked Mode group and the vCenter Server system has a machine name that does not match the domain name, several connectivity problems arise. Correct this situation by changing the URLs.

About this task

If you do not update the URLs, remote instances of vCenter Server cannot reach the vCenter Server system, because the default vCenter Server URL entries are no longer accurate. The vCenter Server installer configures default URL entries as follows:

For the Virtualcenter.VimApiUrl key, the default value is http(s)://Fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of vCenter Server machine/sdkvCenter Server.

For the Virtualcenter.VimWebServicesUrl key, the default value is https://FQDN of vCenter Server machine:installed-webservices-port/vwsvCenter Server.
